5 Connecting to power supply

5.1 Preparing the connection

Always keep in mind the following safety instructions:

Connect only in the complete absence of line voltage

Connect mains voltage according to the connection diagrams. Take

note of the general installation regulations. The electronics module

CP60C is designed in protection class I. To maintain this protection

class, it is absolutely necessary that the ground conductor be con-

nected to the internal ground conductor terminal. Take note of the

corresponding installation regulations for Ex applications.
The data for power supply are specified in chapter "Technical data".

The instrument is connected with standard three-wire cable without

screen. If electromagnetic interference is expected which is above the

test values of EN 61326 for industrial areas, screened cable should

be used.
Use cable with round cross-section. A cable outer diameter of

5 … 9 mm (0.2 … 0.35 in) ensures the seal effect of the cable gland.

If you are using cable with a different diameter or cross-section,

exchange the seal or use a suitable cable gland.

5.2 Connection procedure

With Ex instruments, the housing cover may only be opened if there is

no explosive atmosphere present.
Proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the housing cover
2. Loosen compression nut of the cable entry
3. Remove approx. 10 cm (4 in) of the cable mantle, strip approx.

1 cm (0.4 in) of insulation from the ends of the individual wires

4. Insert the cable into the sensor through the cable entry
5. Lift the opening levers of the terminals with a screwdriver (see

following illustration)

6. Insert the wire ends into the open terminals according to the wir-

ing plan

7. Press down the opening levers of the terminals, you will hear the

terminal spring closing

8. Check the hold of the wires in the terminals by lightly pulling on

them

9. Tighten the compression nut of the cable entry. The seal ring must

completely encircle the cable

10. If necessary, carry out a fresh adjustment
11. Screw the housing cover back on
The electrical connection is hence finished.
